“Well, I’ll start of with the basics you'll need to know to understand how this is so confusing to me. All my life i've constantly been told by girls "i only like you as a friend" There this girl in real life who i really like, but we're just friends, best friends to be exact, and i'm totally fine with that. In fact, i am great with it because relationships often die out but friendships don't. She is in my dreams almost every night, but last night, "she was in my dream but only in the background a couple of times and we spoke a little bit. The strangest part is now, there was this girl in my dream (who i don't know in real life, she was obviously made up in my dreamland) who is completely not my type in looks and personality. But for some reason i started to like her, a lot, and just as i was getting the courage up to ask her on a date, she makes it very clear that we're just friends. Not only that, but one of my childhood friends who i am still currently friends with also liked her but she also only liked him as a friend too, but i was willing to go behind his back to go on a date with the girl who we both liked (and i wouldn't do that in real life, i'm not that kind of guy)”(sic)
Dream Momma likes this dream because it is such a good example of the sexual shadow at work.
